And I gotta say, I think he is sincere. And there was a time when there were lots of Democrats who defended free speech. It's difficult to name a Democrat who defends free speech. Today in the Senate, I served with 51 Democrat senators. There's not one, not a single one who I've ever heard speak up against big tech censorship. There's not one who I've ever heard speak up against media censorship. Literally, we go through hearing after hearing files. Was there anybody that was even outraged? Zero. (07:04–07:16)
